caution

The browser blocks parsing and rendering of the page when it encounters <script> elements without a defer or async attribute - source

Scripts loaded from <script> elements with a type=module attribute are deferred by default - source

Omit type='text/javascript' in <script> tags

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/script#attr-type

This is not recommended: <script type='text/javascript'>/* JS code */</script>

HTML5 specification urges authors to omit the attribute rather than provide a redundant MIME type.
